    Default Front right noise

    I replaced the Rotors and Pads last weekend.

    5 days later i now have a metal on metal sound on sharp left turns if i have the brakes on.
    Not sure if its a problem or if its the new 18in tyres i have on now as it only does this in the same corners

    Any ideas

    Cheers

    Just had a look at the discs and there is no marks on it

    Is it possible it could be the pads bedding in ?

    Have you checked all your Link pin bushes & all other bushes ? Link pin bushes can make a mettle sound when they are worn.
